Six people were arrested in the Netherlands and the UK over a $27 million "typosquatting" scam, which involved making a fake website to gain access to user Bitcoin wallets.

.
This only proves that Netherlands is Good in catching scammers (How i wish our country will do same because of tons of scamming happening here) imagine that 27million$ are a Lifetime investment of some Victims and maybe those are what they gather from their lifetime crypto investing.
I strongly condemn such illegal things on crypto market.away with their wrongdoing.
We are in one position in this point mate because these criminals must be all gone Damn.
I am happy at least here police have been able to identify them and brought them under justice. No criminals should be left alone in crypto space! Common people usually try to avoid dirty water.
And this will be an eye opener for those aspiring to be scammers and also those becoming a target .

 Typosquatting is the type of scamming where they hijack different websites or fake the URL so that they can have access to the accounts of the victim who input their bitcoin wallet in the website.
Indeed and this has been exposed in many threads in scam section i think.

If you're a mindful person, you will never try new websites that is related to crypto
.
Nope there are some new sites that is legit we have some tools now to check if the sites are scams or phishing sites just look for google.

You will know that the website is a fraud and looks suspicious if the website lacks a certain features and also the design is plain. If the volume of people is not that huge enough, there's a possibility that the website you're accessing for your bitcoin wallet might be fake. That's why you should look for more reviews and information about the website where you can access your bitcoin wallet.
this is what we need to learn before exploring internet specially if you are a crypto users because we are mostly the target nowadays.
